打开兼容模式时如何确定正确的浏览器版本

Question

I need to determine which version of browser the user is using, however compatibility mode is turned on by default for the entire company.

On the server side script, how do I determine the real browser version?

Thanks

Update I've got my page correctly showing the IE version using document.documentMode, however I can't figure out how to pass this over to the server side so I can use it.

Answer 1

Request.Browser will give you complete browser information, where you can check version, browser name, browser type etc.

Request.Browser.Version // Return complete browser version infor
Request.Browser.Browser // If browser is IE then it will return **IE**

Answer 2

document.documentMode in javascript was the solution.

<script>
alert(document.documentMode);
<script>

Answer 3

Use HttpContext.Current.Request.UserAgent on server if on client then user navigator.userAgent and then instructions from below ie7 has no trident keyword but ie8 is trident/4 and IE5 is trident/5.

First look for MSIE xx, if xx is 7 then look for Trident/yy If trident is missing then it IE7 if yy is 4 then its IE8 and if yy is 5 then ie9 and if yy is 6 then ie10

Answer 4

Rather than fighting compatibility mode, you can turn it off for your specific web application. We do this on all of our sites because compatibility mode really screws a lot of things up.

Force IE compatibility mode off using tags
